Sincere condolences to the Kensington whanau. Bob was a great bloke and tennis buddy at the Rangimarie Tennis Club. He was a strong player with all the strokes and enjoyed the Sunday afternoon games at the club and a beer afterwards. He did a lot of work helping to maintain the courts. I'll add a photo from 2016 in the clubroom with Bob sitting in his usual spot wearing the club sweatshirt.

Kindest regards to the Kensington Family.
Bob was one of my mentors when I was an apprentice and an up and coming builder at Freear Philips quite a few years ago. Always good to work with him with his upbeat humour. Kia Kaha
